Whew. The last mystery was so tough that only two people even guessed. So maybe this one will be easier. Send your guess to: editor@charlestoncurrents.com. And don’t forget to include your name and the town in which you live.
Our previous Mystery Photo: Only the super photo sleuth, George Graf of Palmyra, Va., had the stick-to-it dedication to identify last week’s mystery as the new Baxter Patrick James Island Public Library currently under construction.
This is obviously a construction site. Hint: It’s in South Carolina. But where … and what is it? Send your guess to: editor@charlestoncurrents.com. And don’t forget to include your name and the town in which you live.
Our previous Mystery Photo: Our Dec. 31 mystery, “Is it a castle?” should have been easy for people who walk around old Charleston. It wasn’t a castle, but a close-up photo of the Circular Congregational Church at 150 Meeting Street.
This part of the South Carolina building above looks like a castle. But is it? Send your guess to: editor@charlestoncurrents.com. And don’t forget to include your name and the town in which you live.

Our Dec. 17 mystery, “A Lowcountry building decked out for the holidays,” was a gift from longtime sleuth Bill Segars Hartsville. He sent us a picture of the Fishers of Men Total Man Deliverance Ministry church in downtown Walterboro.
Charleston resident Cynthia Bledsoe sent along these great photos after jetting recently to Vienna to experience the sights, sounds and tastes of the holiday season. We hope you’ll enjoy them as much as we did – and that you have a happy yuletide.
This week’s mystery comes to us from a loyal reader who said the building almost screams Christmas – even without the wreathes on the front of the building. Hint: It’s in the greater Lowcountry area and we expect it might be a tough one. Send your guess to: editor@charlestoncurrents.com. And don’t forget to include your name and the town in which you live.
Our previous Mystery Photo: Our Dec. 10 mystery, “Clues in photo might give away where it is,” had enough clues to get a lot of correct guesses from alert readers. They knew the photo showed the Charleston Maritime Center along the bank of the Cooper River near the S.C. Aquarium.
What are where is this photo? Send your guess to: editor@charlestoncurrents.com. And don’t forget to include your name and the town in which you live.
Our previous Mystery Photo: Our Dec. 3 mystery, “Tell us more about this artwork” was pretty easy, some people told us. That’s fine – sometimes they need to be on the easier side just to encourage entries!
This looks pretty interesting, but what is it and who made it? Send your guess to: editor@charlestoncurrents.com. And don’t forget to include your name and the town in which you live.
Our previous Mystery Photo: Our Nov. 26 mystery, “Who painted this?” may have looked like a watercolor by Alice Huger Smith to some, but actually was part of a 1920 oil painting of Magnolia Gardens by Charleston Renaissance artist Alfred Hutty.
This excerpt of a painting of a South Carolina scene may look like a watercolor, but it isn’t. But it should look familiar. Who painted it and what is it? Send your guess to: editor@charlestoncurrents.com. And don’t forget to include your name and the town in which you live.
Our previous Mystery Photo: Our Nov. 19 mystery, “Who is this guy?” is a photo of Jasper Johns, a world-famous artist recognized as South Carolina’s own (despite the fact that he was actually born in Augusta.)
Wonder if this guy looks familiar to you? Who is he and why should we care in South Carolina? Send your guess to: editor@charlestoncurrents.com. And don’t forget to include your name and the town in which you live.
Our previous Mystery Photo: Our Nov. 12 mystery, “A bridge to somewhere,” is a view of Hernando de Soto Bridge across the mighty Mississippi River in Memphis, Tenn.
